I know many of you go to school.
What kinda school?
What are you studying?
When does summer break start?
Exams?
I go to Hamrahlíð College in Reykjavík. I'm majoring in languages. My school has the age range of 16-20 years old (some are younger, some are older).
Exams started Monday last week, and my last exam is on Thursday. I have Icelandic (+ old norse) tomorrow, and physics/chemistry on Thursday.
Then I have summer vacation
So.. how about you?

The school is about economy (figures), but still goes wide with other subjects, I hate book keeping , but other economy sunjects are interesting...
Summer break starts 18th June I think, like in all the schools in Croatia, and exams are here, but I have a feeling that I study much less than other people but know more than others ...

As for languages i learn: Dutch, English, German, French, Modern Hebrew and Old Hebrew.
Exams begin next month so its pretty tense now since all the teachers are constantly reminding us of that.
Summer-vacation starts in July.

I study English, Maths, German, Computers, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Geography and Economics. My exam leave starts May 19th and the exams a few days after that. Then it's on and off exams and feverish study for a couple of weeks before the exams end and it's into a nice long holiday, beofore I come back next year wearing a suit Next year I plan to stay and study Economics, Psychology, Maths and either more maths or possibly computing. I hope to go on to a good university to study Economics.

People are 14-19, there're no exam from one year to the next except obviously the final ones.
We can choose between 4 different sections, they're pretty much the same except for more hours dedicated to certain subjects and less hours to others (or new subjects at all). Sections are Traditional, Linguistic, Informatic, Technologic. I'm in Linguistic, and have these subjects:
Italian
Italian Literature
Divine Comedy: Paradise by Dante (it's a subject per se
Latin
Latin Literature
Philosophy
History
Art History
Gym
Maths
Physics
Religion
English
English Literature
German
German Literature
Sciences:
Astronomy
Geology
and that's it. I'm also the cover-maker of the school journal and took two sport courses (free-climbing and volley-ball).
It's quite an ace school, actually.
